Community Responsibility

Just as we help our customers look and feel their finest, we work to serve our community to be its best. In addition to contributing to local causes, Classic Cleaners is proud to contribute to national and international not-for-profit organizations. We've also made big changes in how we operate our business on a day to day basis to demonstrate our dedication to reducing our impact on our environment.

We offer a discount on uniform cleaning to all first responders and medical professionals. We also offer free American Flag Cleaning Year Round.

Our Community Partner

The mission of Dress for Success Indianapolis is to promote the economic independence of disadvantaged women by providing professional attire, a network of support and the career development tools to help women thrive in work and in life.

More than 9,000 women have been served through Dress for Success Indianapolis since the organization was founded in 1999. Classic Cleaners has supported Dress for Success Indianapolis since 2003 and has supported this good cause in two main ways:

On an ongoing basis, each of our retail locations act as drop-off sites for donations of women's suits and blouses. We then complimentary clean the women's suits and blouses our customers donate to this organization and deliver them to Dress for Success Indianapolis' downtown office. Since our partnership began, and with our customers' help, over 8,500 women have interviewed in style, confidence, and a clean crisp suit.

Classic Cleaners has supported Dress for Success Indianapolis through the organization's annual “Send One Suit Week” drive and the annual signature fundraiser, Stepping Out in Style. Since 2008 Classic Cleaners has sponsored or attended the annual Stepping Out in Style fundraising event and has acted as the Donation Match Sponsor, Classic Image Sponsor and in 2018 we’re committed to sponsoring the fundraisers after party. Combined through these initiatives we’re thrilled to contribute over $75,000 in sponsorship dollars.

In total, through our above mentioned partnership, Classic Cleaners' corporate donations to Dress for Success Indianapolis have amounted to more than $190,000!

Our Environmental Responsibility

Since the start of our business over 31 years ago, we've always used the safest cleaning products available and have been recognized by the Department of Environmental Management. In 2012 we invested over $300,000 to convert to eco friendly cleaning machines and fluid. As of September 2012, we are the first dry cleaners (and the largest) in our market to operate a system that uses this kinder, gentler fluid that is 100% harmless and odorless. This eco friendly cleaning fluid has received the highest rating available from the dermatological community so those that have been sensitive to chemicals or odor can now safely - and effectively - benefit from having their wardrobe and household items professionally cleaned.

We encourage our customers to bring their hangers back to us for recycling by and provide hanger caddies for their convenience. A large percentage of these hangers are reused after sanitizing which reduces our waste as well as our operating cost.

On a daily basis, we also accept plastic wrap for reuse and recycling, and follow energy-smart practices.

Our Responsibility to the Economy

Classic Cleaners strives to be a good corporate citizen through our impact on the local economy. As a locally owned and operated company in Indianapolis we contribute to our local economy by employing over 100 individuals. As an employer of choice, we invest in our employees by offering a good wage, benefits, continuous training, and promotions from within the company whenever possible. We also contribute to our local economy by offering an excellent product for our customers’ dollar.
